Pacific oyster mantle, gill and hemocytes express the bicarbonate‐sensing enzyme soluble adenylyl cyclase
Soluble adenylyl cyclase (sAC) is an evolutionarily conserved CO 2 /pH/bicarbonate sensor involved in diverse physiological processes in vertebrates. In response to increases in bicarbonate, sAC catalyzes the formation of cAMP from ATP, which results in PKA‐dependent phosphorylation in target protei...
